Шаблон:Mp is an exceptionally eccentric trans-Neptunian object and damocloid on an orbit typical of long-period comets but one that showed no sign of cometary activity around the time it was discovered.[1] The unusual object measures approximately Шаблон:Convert in diameter and has a rotation period of 35.4 hours and likely an elongated shape.[2]

Description

Шаблон:Mp orbits the Sun at a distance of 2.5–504 AU once every 4,033 years (semi-major axis of 253 AU). Its orbit has an eccentricity of 0.99 and an inclination of 30° with respect to the ecliptic.[3]

Simulations indicate that it has most likely come from the Oort cloud, with a roughly equal probability of being an extinct comet and a rocky body that was originally scattered into the Oort cloud. The discovery of Шаблон:Mp prompted theoretical research that suggests that roughly 1 to 2 percent of the Oort cloud objects are rocky.[4][5]

Шаблон:Mp was first observed on 9 August 1996 by the Near-Earth Asteroid Tracking (NEAT) automated search camera on Haleakala Observatory, Hawaii. It is the first object that is not an active comet discovered on an orbit typical of long-period comets.[4]

Шаблон:Mp has a rotation period of Шаблон:Val hours and a double-peaked lightcurve with a high amplitude of Шаблон:Val magnitude (Шаблон:Small).[2][1] Its spectrum is moderately red and featureless,[6] typical of D-type asteroids and bare comet nuclei.[1][5][6] Its spectrum suggests an extinct comet.[6] The upper limit on Шаблон:Mp's dust production is Шаблон:Val.[1]
